The show will be delayed due to golf here on the East Coast (NYC viewing area). Once it starts, this post will be updated with major events as it airs. But the real fun is in the comments section. Everyone is welcome, bring your own snacks and beverages! Later tonight my show review will be posted on TV Squad.
I want to say about a fifteen minute delay, but I wasn't paying attention to when 60 Minutes started. So, I'm putting the post up on time and we'll just see.
8:19 PM ET and it's finally starting here.
Lots of recapping, lots of tension in the house. Michele hasn't made the nominations yet.
As Lydia, Chima, and Natalie all act like Jessie, their God, has died, Kevin rolls his eyes. Michele told Jeff and Jordan she wants to see Chima go home. J and J yell YAY!
The Have Have Not had them playing for food for each day. Every day but Monday they'll have food, no cold showers, and they got a grill. Chima acted like a brat through it all.
Key order: Jordan, Jeff, Russell, Kevin, Lydia
Chima and Natalie nominated.
What a letdown! All we got is a teaser for the Tuesday show when "one houseguest self-destructs and is removed from the show."

Am I 1st??
ReplyDeleteThere's a 1st time for everything!!
ReplyDeleteJackie....SS about the kitty falling thru.
It looks like BB will start @ 8:20 here in Philly.
Yes, Jokats you are first. Did you bring snacks to share?
ReplyDeleteAs usual I have the makings for Margaritas or Shots over by the pool. Fresh limes are cut and there's a chip and dip bowl full of fresh salsa and good tortilla chips.
Mean people and screamers will not get any tonight so please be nice in honor of the current HOH.
Hey Laurie,
ReplyDeleteI've got ice cold Coors Lights & some awesome goodies from 9th & Federal (The Italian market). I am willing to share w/ all except for dirty sweatshirt wearing pitbulls.
Jokats...love the Italian market in PHL
ReplyDeleteesp Fante's DiBruno's
Hi, I am patiently waiting.....
ReplyDeletedo you think they will address chima leaving tonight or tuesday?
ReplyDeleteYAY... I'm getting to post a little tonight... but only because it's late starting.
ReplyDeleteDid you hear that Tiger got beat by the 110th ranked golfer by 3 points. I love Tiger, but this was big for him I'm sure. He came in second.
Just thought I'd mention it, since he's why we're late getting started.
OK... got my pitbull and am ready to go.
LOL, I nearly spit my iced tea out on that last comment. That would have been a good avatar ... No stained shirts!
ReplyDeleteMy t-shrt is clean, I promise.
I think I could eat just about anything from a real Italian market. Sounds delish.
Can't wait to see what they will show and how much will be explained tonight or will they wait for later in the week.
ReplyDeleteBTW--I only had time to bake some cookies....Oatmeal chocolate chip...enjoy. And no, that's not my dog...just a pit bull in honor of Natalie. Although Nat. never smiles!
My poor 9 year old English pitbull Chickie has taken offense to me referring to Nasty Nat as a pitbull. I apologize to Chickie & all the other kindhearted pits out there!!
ReplyDeleteMargo, I think they almost have to address it tonight. It's not like people don't know ... and if anyone doesn't know they deserve to find out. I'm actually looking forward to the show and usually Sunday is one I skip.
ReplyDeleteJacki, thanks for doing this and for taking the WV off for the show.
OT: What a surprise for Tiger to lose to someone that low rated. That's gotta smart a bit.
Ohh I am LOL at the pitbulls! MEEOW!!
ReplyDeleteI think everything will be addressed on Tuesday. I love how CBS is saying they evited Chima, while Chima herself released her own statement and said she quit, and it was basically everyone elses fault but her own.
I have some roasted almonds to much on and diet coke for those who want it.
ReplyDeleteMichelle's noms would not normally be until the end of the show...so who knows with everything messes up....about to start here...
ReplyDeleteImenat almonds to munch on! LOL
ReplyDeleteOK, Chickie has forgiven me & has settled down w/ my kitty Pretty Girl & the show is starting!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteNana, your pit is smiling in anticipation of being with Jessie !
ReplyDeleteI would like to say that there are no bad dogs (including pit bulls) only bad owners and trainers. Jokats, please tell Chickie we didn't nickname Natalie ... we are just wanting the Avatar Power to be used to get her out.
I see we have the anti pit bull energy here tonight. Not the dog, the Natalie!
ReplyDeletebring on the meltdown. You know they have to air some of it to provide for a Producer eviction of Chima. I'm ready, lol!
Hey, sorry I'm late.
ReplyDeleteI think I better put down the diet coke and try some thing stronger my spelling/keyboarding is awful tonight.
ReplyDeleteHI All -- trying to eat dinner. Feeding 3 little squirrels here at home every 2hours -- between making formula, taking time with all their little eating oddities, cleaning them, sterilizing their droppers, etc... it leaves me about a half hour free each 2 hours!
ReplyDeleteChima, I don't want to see you "wild animal style"
For once, I'm lovin, lovin, lovin the recaps I can't see it enough!
ReplyDeleteLove seeing the play back except for the shirt off.
ReplyDeleteIt would be so cool if it were Jeff and Jordan in the end. I would actually ENJOY watching those two as the only ones in the house in the last week. Normally those last few shows are like pulling teeth or watching dust accumulate.
ReplyDeleteOT: Jokat, Pretty Girl and Chickie are an adorable pair!
ReplyDeleteJoKats, I love that pic! Giving a shout out to Chickie and Pretty Girl
ReplyDeleteIs Jeff frikkin HAWT or what!!! YEAH JEFF Tell it like it is Wizzard Brother!!
ReplyDeletechrist you are delusional nat and now Chima
ReplyDeleteI THINK I'M GONNA THROW UP WATCHING NASTY & CHIA CRY
ReplyDeleteDo I really need to bring back my cry baby avatar??? Yes, Kevin... a sane voice among the crying widows!
ReplyDeleteOH MY GAWD! Don't these people realize that Jessie would take himself in that final two over any of those girls... maybe there's an exception with Natalie...
ReplyDeleteIt's just a shock. Lydia, he is never going to go for you out side these walls. Didn't he come into the house with a girlfriend anyway?
And what have the Widow Witches done? Man ohhhh man...
ReplyDeleteGood, they are showing Shemouth. Oh, they are letting her nasty side show.
ReplyDeleteOh, the little pit dog is crying and telling the DR how wonderful Jessy was and how he never hurt anyone. No? Oh, that's right. He had the little pit bul.
Bye Jesse. Bye.
ReplyDeleteThat never gets old.
Tacos anyone?
ReplyDeleteJust got to the party. Chima is delusional.
ReplyDeleteQuestion: do any of you think Chima would be still be there if she hadn't won HOH and her power wasn't stripped?
ReplyDeleteCutie Jordan is like she is watching a tennis match. Back and forth.
ReplyDeleteAhahahah, my 82 y.o. mom just said, " I can't get over those lips"!
ReplyDeleteGood way to put it Jeff-- "I opened the doors for EVERYONE to get close to the win, even thought they don't know it.
ReplyDeleteSo true. GO JEFF!
I love it that Jeff said "I opened the door for EVERYONE to get a chance at the win, even though they don't know it now.
ReplyDeleteSO TRUE. GO JEFF!!!
Michelle does look better blonde...
ReplyDeleteshe's my gal in the pool.
Tacos sound great Becky. Yum!
ReplyDeleteI brought mine back Monty LOL
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteJokat, no offence toward your doggie. Casey called Nasty Jessy's little pit bull. So some of us obviously wanted to show we want her out. Laurie, love your slash.
ReplyDeletePC, no! Chima was a ticking time bomb. It would have happened anyway the minute she was out of the power structure.
ReplyDeleteWow...Russell would give up the POV if he won it to take Jeff off the block if they were both up there together. Now that's the best way of winning $500,000 I can think of.
ReplyDeleteChima was only bawling because she does not want Russel in there. Was not so much about Jessie.
ReplyDelete(Someone may have said this 100 times, but I haven't been able to read comments)
Oh Christ Russell -- why are you saying I'll give you the POV and go home to keep my word. I mean, be sincere, but it's for 500,000 dollars! Hello!
It so funny to watch this....it seems like it happened weeks ago, not just 3 days! So much has happened....they sure editted out ALOT!!! Back to the show....
ReplyDeleteEverytime I see Chima I can't help but be so thankful tht she's actually really truly GONE!
ReplyDeleteI love sharing pics of my animals here's a pic of my american pit & kitty (Nino & Fat Boy) watching nasty & chima make a$$es of themselves
ReplyDeleteDid anyone catch that comment at the beginning from either Nat or Chima about how the bad people always win talking about Jeff. Seriously, do they really think we all see them in a good light.
ReplyDeleteHey Rochelle, did you steal Sydney's avatar?
ReplyDeleteI think Chima would self-destruct no matter what. The power of the wizard just helped it happen a little sooner.
ReplyDeleteBecky, thanks for the tacos. Really yummy!
Delee, the Crybaby avatar is appropriate for tonight from what I'm reading.
I'm watching Milk - will watch BB later
ReplyDeletePass the bucket quick I feel supper returning after that toast!
ReplyDeleteI'll never drink Merlot the same way again!! GAG
ReplyDeleteOkay, I'm puking over in the yard and not the pool. The three merry widows make me gag.
ReplyDeleteBB gave them liquor after that? What did they expect? Love Kevin.
ReplyDeleteI'm lovin on Kev tonight!!!!
ReplyDeleteLMAO @ Kevin the drama queen
ReplyDeleteThank gawd Merlot gives me a migraine
ReplyDeleteChickie and Pretty Girl are adorable.
ReplyDeleteHope there is more melt down. They have to address it tonight. They have to work in the nominations, the next HOH and nominations plus POV.
Keving can be funny.
Oh so true Kevin. I'm glad to hear they are driving you crazy as well.
ReplyDeleteRedonkulous LOVE IT
ReplyDeleteKevin hit the nail on the head.
ReplyDeleteit's like a eulogy
ReplyDeleteThey all need Prozac, seriously
ReplyDeleteMy comments just keep getting lost when I hit publish. Usually when I return to the previous page there they are but not tonight. grrr...
ReplyDeleteJessie didn't say much about anyone in the house because he let the girls do it for him while he stayed quiet.
I'm sorry, this is f'ing hilarious. I had to just pick myself up off the floor!
ReplyDeleteFrankly I find the Jessy wake funny. Love watching Kevin's face.
ReplyDeleteomg is right.
ReplyDeletethose three girls are so freaking hysterical.
Your welcome Nasty! Yeah, we are stand up people.
ReplyDeletePoor Kevvie aligned himself with the wrong crew.
ReplyDeleteTHINK ABOUT IT -- America voted for the people they liked Natalie!
Run Kevin, run!!!! Why are you still sitting there listening to them.
ReplyDeleteThat's right Nasty we are stand up people, you on the other hand look like a Jack Ass on National TV
ReplyDeleteKevin is hilarious... the girls are totally ridiculous and as much as it seems like they are mismatched, Michelle, Russell, Jeff and Jordon are going to be an alliance. YAY!
ReplyDeleteone day when those three go to hell, the devil will make them watch that video clip of themselves forever and ever as punishment for being such stupid biotches.
ReplyDeleteOMG--Kevin's looks were priceless!!! It sounds like Lydia and Jessie actually talked....must have been while Lydia's hands were busy elsewhere!! Oops, sorry that was mean.... :-)

I was gonna say... Oh. Sydney already said it!
Every season the skanky people think they're the "good ones". HA!
ReplyDeleteAnother 82 yo gem, "this show gets worse every year... where do they find these people"?
ReplyDeletecome on bb wewant to see the chima meltdown
ReplyDeleteNana, Jessie couldn't carry on a conversation while Lydia was working her magic. He can hardly think with all the blood is in his pinhead, much less when it's, uhm, elsewhere.
ReplyDeleteNow I know why they had so much gunk in their hair...
ReplyDeleteI'm glad they're showing this, they are painting a lovely picture of Chima and the other 2 witches
ReplyDeleteEwwww... I want to slap Chima!
ReplyDeleteGot that right. America will see what the feeders/bloggers have seen ALL along!
ReplyDeleteThey're not going to address the Chima thing?
ReplyDeleteThat happened after the noms end of show feeds did not show much so any of Chima crap will not be shown until Tues...
ReplyDeletei doubt if they'll have time. They still have to do Mich. noms
ReplyDeleteDae yum yum, as in Dayum?
ReplyDeleteOh, cue the Unicorn! CBS, I love you guys tonight, LOL.
ReplyDeleteSusan said...

-----------
I think tonight's show will show everything up through Friday's evictions, and Tuesday will show the Chima explosion
Lydia doing Baby talk just doesn't work somehow...
ReplyDeleteI want a Dae Yum Yum
ReplyDeleteOh Jordan -- is that playing hard to get? What is the hesitation GIRL?
ReplyDeleteHow can you not like these people?
ReplyDeleteJ&J are making me feel all warm & fuzzy
ReplyDeletej & J are so cute together.
ReplyDeletei don't care what anyone says russ is still hot
ReplyDeleteI have to say -- Chima's got a rockin' bod.
ReplyDeleteI have to agree....Russ is a hottie!
ReplyDeletechima is pretty on the outside but then she opens her mouth and not quite so pretty anymore
ReplyDeleteCucumbers and carp
ReplyDeleteMince Meat and marshmallows
Churros and chitlins
LOL
These America's Choices of cucumbers and kumquats is SOOOOO LAME! Like I want to pay $1 text fee to vote for one of these- what a non game impact question. I want a mystery houseguest or something IMPORTANT.
ReplyDeleteYou can vote online free at CBS.com
ReplyDeleteBB/CBS are totally setting up the Tuesday show, and I love, love, love it.
ReplyDeleteFree or not, these America's Choices are so lame this year!
ReplyDeleteMichelle's voice was shaking just a little.
ReplyDeleteRoll those eyes, Lydia! hehehe
ReplyDeleteThey can dish it out but can't take it.
ReplyDeleteNo thanks, Lydia. Oh, yeah, she never thanked Jeff for saving her lousy butt.
ReplyDeleteKarma's a B!tch...
ReplyDeleteWHat will happened Tues tune in as if we do not know LOL
ReplyDeleteAt least they said it was coming
ReplyDeleteWell at least they said it even tho they didn't show any of it yet.
ReplyDeleteOh, they just alluded to Shemouth self destructing.
ReplyDeleteWhat are Churros?
ReplyDeleteSo...Natalie is going to start playing now?
ReplyDeleteHahahaha.
OMGoodness they usually show the house during closing credits this time not
ReplyDeletelong fried dough with cinnamon/sugar Me_ican
ReplyDeleteMeb - Spanish doughnuts -- kind of a fried dough. Tasty and calories, but not really healthy
ReplyDeleteIt is going to be so wonderful to have more positive vibes in the house.
ReplyDeleteI think it is so cute that Jeff an Jordan are "engaged."
Ohhhh this show is so frustrating!! They could have shown a little more of pre-destruction but instead they dangle the carrot...tune in Tues. when one HG self-destructs....DUH like no one will figure that out!
ReplyDeleteLydia is an ungrateful b*tch. Her butt was saved and all she can do is hate Jeff for sending Jessie home...her name should be Gnat because that's who she's acting like! Wait till she get the JUry House and Jessie treats her like crap!! DUMB GIRL!!
So funny -just called my son to try to tell him what happened to Chima (they just watch the show) and he laughed & wouldn't let me. They're a few minutes behind me (MA)in NH. Glad I can vent/glow in this blog!
ReplyDeleteHmmm delee... Churros sound like they'd be good! I hope they get some of those. A lot of people enjoy chitlins too.
ReplyDeleteJackie... thanks for the place to comment on BB... this was fun, even if I was running from room to room to get back and forth to my puter.
ReplyDeleteIf Chima has her way her alleged mistreatment will be all over the news by Tuesday. I believe she will get all the publicity she can squeeze our of this event. I do hope I'm wrong about that.
ReplyDeleteSee you all Tuesday night for the big "secret" about the self-destruction. Can't wait to see what they show and what they don't. I hope they do some damage control on Russell as a terrorist. That would be nice. Probably not happening, I know.
I've said this once or twice before Heather Mills better take another look at allowing Lydia to take care or her child, this girl is totally SICK
ReplyDeleteThese folks have really short memories. "Jessie never said a bad word about anyone in the house"??? Puh-lease!!! It was all behind people's backs; I guess that doesn't count. I am surprised they showed the discussion in the LR while voting was going on; Jessie was the only one who agreed that the CDE was a brilliant move.
ReplyDeleteI know Chima has said she left the game voluntarily, and CBS says she was removed. Unfortunately for her, this isn't a she said/they said; they have written rules and her actions are on 24/7 videotape!!
Oh well. Good night! Granny, your cooler is the red one by the diving board. I ordered you Chipotle tacos tonight.
Witt :)

--------
In her mind it might make a difference, but to the TV people, and the blog readers, feedsters, their minds are made up about her. I could care less what she thinks.
CBS will portray her as breaking the rules and being a sore loser. That's bad enough for me. And on top of that, she doesn't get her way, she now quits. We saw this attitude the first week when she became a have-not.
Either way the cookie crumbles, she looks like an idiot. A sore loser and a quitter.
Steven from last year wrote a blog about Chima leaving. It's an interesting read:
ReplyDeletehttp://bbdish.blogspot.com/2009/08/bb10-steven-daigles-reaction-to-chimas.html
I also suspect like others that CHima will be all of the TV talk shows telling her lies to all who will listen, I hope she has a good Attorney because she will need one if her plans are to go up against BB/CBS you know on most of the talk shows and TV magazine shows pay their guest, so she'll make a few bucks that way. I'm hoping no one will really care, but I'm sure there will be a few who have problems with reality shows and feel tht the producers are cheating.
ReplyDeleteI wonder when these people do these programs if they realize, really realize, we witness everything 24/7 or someone does. Doesn't the word witness mean anything to these attention seeking, lying media hounds. What does she expect to get from telling her side of the the story when it is documented.
ReplyDeleteMy senitments exactly Judy/JKSP1957
ReplyDeletePlaidChick, thanks for the link to Steven's writeup about what it's like to be in the house. He said what many of us have suspected, the emotional side of being in the house that long is hard for the contestants. I'm sure they are told that ahead of time but that doesn't mean they are ready for it.
ReplyDeleteI've said all along (as have many others) that she has some serious emotional problems and clearly they were brought to the surface by being in the house, and exploded when she lost the power she thought she had in the house.
She would have been the first one to celebrate the event if the shoe had been on the other foot and she could have ruined someone else's HOH nominations. It wasn't about fairness, it was about her losing her power and not getting her way.
Hopefully something good will come out of this ugly mess and she will get the help she needs so she can live a full and productive life. Yeah, I hate who she showed herself to be while on the show, but I do have a heart and I wouldn't want anyone to live the life she has ahead of her if there's a way to stop it.
I agree Laurie. I think Chima is more emotionally unstable than she's willing to admit (with good reason), and the house pressure just put her over the edge.
ReplyDeleteSomebody asked for a recap on the pool. Since Margo isn't here tonight, I'll fill in for her and give you what I have. I think it's accurate.

Susan, I have a feeling Lydia is not quite mentally stable either. This whole thing with Jessie is just too over the top, IMHO.
ReplyDeleteIt was odd seeing her on last night's BBAD. I finally realized it was because I couldn't see her tats! She was alternately laughing and being morose while talking with Natalie and Kevin.
Her behavior and this obsession with St Jessie is just too strange.
My WV is barred. I think alcohol should be barred from the BB house!
They should have given Lydia RED hair dye, Bright Bright Red! That hot neon pink hair is really clashing with the red unitard and the red blanket and the red headboard she was against last night on BBAD.
ReplyDeleteGo Jordan!
OK, I'm late! I wanted to watch on Justtvnutz, but forgot I could do that until after the show was over. But I only have 3 minutes to wait for West Coast time!!
ReplyDeleteNana, your pit bull looks pretty friendly. Is that the look Nat is giving Jordon & Jeff as she's trying to get on their good side??
While I'm waiting, I'll catch up with the comments here, and help myself to some of the goodies. There's usually so much that I didn't bring any this time. Besides, most everyone has probably gone home by now. If there's any cold beer, would someone please pass me one.
I'm here, PDX. We can watch the show together!
ReplyDeleteDisloyal? Because he didn't bow to Queen Chima? Nice to see this part of the show for a change.
ReplyDeleteHow great is it to watch she show tonight knowing she is gone?
Oh, and Natalie is nuts!
Thanks for the Pool update Laurie. Hi PDX!
ReplyDeleteMargo, how did you like Milk? I thought it was really well done.
JimmyB-- were we twins in another life? :-)
Love, love, love Kevin's DR comments about Jessie. He's the only one of that group that's not delusional!
ReplyDeleteHi everyone,
ReplyDeleteTonights sobbing of the Jesse show was hilarious.
Poor Chima I wanted to feel bad for her but her cursing in-between beeps made it difficult.
Jackie -
Do a live sound -bite with us..
OMG!! I can't believe I just heard Lydia toasting Jessie saying they "only got a taste of him."
ReplyDeleteI think she got more than a taste!!
ewwww
I needed a spit alert when they showed Chima and Nat all cozied up with Jessie in the HOH room.
ReplyDeletePDX, you cracked me up.
ReplyDeleteThat pity party was hilarious and the shots of Kevin listening to it were priceless. CBS should have had a running tape at the bottom saying: These women are delusional.
PlaidChick said...
ReplyDeleteQuestion: do any of you think Chima would be still be there if she hadn't won HOH and her power wasn't stripped?
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
I think she'd still be there. She'd still be boo hooing over the loss of her idol, but I think not getting her way effected her a lot more than him leaving. She's such a me, me, me person she thinks she should get whatever she wants.
She's probably singing Poor, Poor, Pitiful Me.
I cannot believe how Chima, Natalie and Lydia were acting. I almost fell out of my chair when Natalie said they were the good people in the house and why do the bad people always get ahead. I would hate to be Chima or Natalie and return home and back to work after the game. You can't take back what america has just witnessed.
ReplyDeleteI find it very interesting that the producers finally showed more of the real Chima. Although it was still tame compared to what was seen on the feeds. This will play into her being "evicted" much better for them.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if we'll ever find out the truth about whether she was removed, or removed herself.
Oh well. Good night! Granny, your cooler is the red one by the diving board. I ordered you Chipotle tacos tonight.
ReplyDeleteWitt :)
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Thanks for taking care of me, Witt! I'm sharing it with the others that came late. : )
Jackie wrote...I want to say about a fifteen minute delay, but I wasn't paying attention to when 60 Minutes started.
ReplyDeleteHi Jackie, LOVE your blog!!! FYI when 60 minutes either goes to or comes back from a commercial break they show sometimes show a ticking clock - you can then see how many minutes are left in the show and guesstimate the delay...
